(2)cause Dean has been such an inspiration and a source of strength for me as an aro, but I don't want it to be too-obviously aro, cause he's not always open to non-straight interpretations of Dean. I mostly crochet, but I can also make friendship bracelets or embroidery. So, I was hoping either you or your followers could help with some ideas for things he'd like and/or would make him laugh (I'm all for being cheeky as well). Thanks and keep being awesome!

First, sorry this has taken me a few days to get to, I wasn’t online much over the weekend...

But, I love the ideas you have here. I think they’re all lovely gifts for the cast to get. I understand your fear about having an aro interpretation of Dean to Jensen, but I don’t think, in the context of your gift, that it’s much (if any) of an issue. Old ideas die hard, and ideas and opinions associated with him early in the series may not apply now. Jensen has undergone quite a bit of growth over the last 15 years with the influence of Danneel and Misha (presumably others, as well), and at the very least, I think he understands that someone’s opinion of his character doesn’t necessarily have to be one he adopts.

That being said, maybe everyone has some other ideas they can toss over to you, just to give you more options, so I’ll quit talking and open it to the floor.

Anyone have any gift ideas in the crochet/embroidery realm?

I’ll start. How about embroidering your favorite Dean quote, using aro colors?

ah, yes, amazing episode!! I’m always up for talks about the show (and all kinds of random stuff xD), so you’re more than welcome in my ask box, or DMs if you prefer that :)

and I definitely agree with you, Maine Coons are the best, though I might be a little biased as my little munchkins are the bestest:

and a little extra, because I can’t post pictures of my kitties without any of my doggo :)

These are important questions! Posting without comment for anon.

Additional Information: PG-13 | Action, Adventure, Comedy Trailer:

as I'm spending the majority of my days with 3 giant Maine Coons, I think I've eventually become one of them, so the subjunctive isn't that far off reality xD

but I honestly can't think of anything weirder than the 'presents' my cats have brought me over the years. from a dry pretzel, over entirely unharmed birds/mice/snails/rats/moles/worms (which aren't too keen on being trapped inside a house btw, so they try their darndest to escape while 3 giant cats and a big ass dog think it's the most entertaining and exciting thing ever - although, I very much prefer the unharmed prey to partially eaten animals, carefully draped on the last step of the stairs, so you most definitely step into mouse intestines first thing in the morning. barefoot.), to twigs and leaves, various types of fruit, clothing, one cat loves carrying Q-tips around, another cat carries a toy rope thingy in her mouth twice a day, walks upstairs to the second floor, and meows/yells at us with that thing in her mouth (she doesn't want us to play with her, she just... needs this?), then drops the rope after 20 minutes of howling and goes back downstairs (???)
